Alright, friends and neighbors, it is time once again for Kansas City's annual Restaurant Week! This year's KCRW kicks off today, January 20th and runs through January 29th. This is not only a boffo opportunity to hit up KC's kickin' culinary scene but an excellent time to give something back as Restaurant Week is also a benefit for Harvesters, KC's amazing Community Food Bank. Did you know one lunch purchased during Restaurant Week will buy 7.5 meals through Harvesters food bank? Or that purchasing one dinner during this week will buy 15 meals for folks in need? Yes, 10% of every meal goes to Harvesters and as the site says, giving back never tasted so good. Click on the link here to learn more about Restaurant Week, the list of participating restaurants and further ways to contribute to Harvesters. Might I also mention that Restaurant Week sometimes takes a hit from bad weather, so take advantage of the lack of snow and ice and get out there, peeps!
